Lyrics
We’ll sing in the sunshine
We’ll laugh every day
We’ll sing in the sunshine
And I’ll be on my way
I will never love you
The cost of love’s too dear
But though I’ll never love you
I’ll stay with you one year
And we will sing in the sunshine
We’ll laugh every day
We’ll sing in the sunshine
And I’ll be on my way
I’ll sing to you each morning
I’ll kiss you every night
But darlin’, don’t cling to me
I’ll soon be out of sight
But we can sing in the sunshine
We’ll laugh every day
We’ll sing in the sunshine
And I’ll be on my way
My daddy he once told me
Hey, don’t you love you any man
Just take what they can give you
And give but what you can
And you can sing in the sunshine
We’ll laugh every day
We’ll sing in the sunshine
And you’ll be on your way
And when our year has ended
And I have gone away
You’ll often speak about you
And this is what you’ll say
We sang in the sunshine
You know we laughed every day
We sang in the sunshine
Then you went on you way
